This  year  I  have  to  record  with  regret  the  death  of  a  large  number  of  members 
of  the  staff  active  or  retired.  Though  Dr.  Brodie  died  after  the  close  of  the  last 
academic  year  I  referred  in  my  previous  report  to  the  severe  loss  which  the  Uni- 
versity had  suffered  in  his  removal  from  our  midst. 

On  December  29,  Dr.  James  Loudon  died  suddenly,  though  he  had  for  some 
months  given  signs  of  declining  health.  He  joined  the  staff  of  the  University 
in  1864,  became  professor  in  1875,  president  in  1892,  and  retired  in  1906. 
Throughout  this  long  period  Dr.  Loudon  devoted  his  great  gifts  without  stint  to 
the  service  of  his  Alma  Mater,  and  the  value  and  results  of  his  work  are  to  be  read 
in  the  history  of  the  LTniversity  throughout  the  generation  that  is  now  closing. 

On  December  28,  Professor  W.  H.  Fraser  died  after  a  long  and  painful 
illness  For  thirty  years  he  had  been  head  of  the  department  of  Italian  and 
Spanish  and  placed  it  in  its  present  strong  position.  He  was  an  accurate  scholar, 
an  excellent  teacher,  a  careful  administrator,  and  besides  this  as  a  graduate  he  was 
greatly  interested  in  the  welfare  of  his  university. 

Dr.  Andrew  E.  Gordon,  associate-professor  of  clinical  medicine,  died  in 
January,  having  suffered  from  a  painful  and  protracted  disease  which  began  when 
he  was  on  service  overseas  with  the  No.  4  Canadian  General  Hospital  (University 
of  Toronto).  Beloved  by  his  colleagues  and  admired  by  his  students  as  a  clinician 
he  passed  away  at  the  height  of  his  powers  regretted  by  all. 

In  recording  the  death  of  Dr.  William  Ordright  and  of  Dr.  J.  L.  Davidson  I 
wish  to  express  the  high  appreciation  that  the  University  has  of  the  services  which 
they  performed  while  on  the  active  staff  and  the  sincere  esteem  in  which  they 
were  held. 

In  May,  Dr.  G.  W.  Johnston,  associate-professor  of  Latin,  and  in  July.  Dr. 
John  Fletcher,  head  of  the  same  department  in  University  College,  passed  away. 
Both  were  graduates  of  this  University  and  both  served  it  well.  Dr.  Fletcher, 
never  very  robust  since  coming  to  Toronto,  went  in  and  out  during  these  twenty- 
one  years,  a  man  greatly  beloved,  a  scholar  highly  respected  and  a  teacher  re- 
membered with  gratitude  by  his  students.  Dr.  Johnston  died  in  his  prime  and 
none  has  left  a  finer  memory  for  conscientiousness  in  all  his  work. 

In  December,  Dr.  A.  B.  Macallum,  F.R.S.,  accepted  the  appointment  to 
the  Chairmanship  of  the  Honorary  Advisory  Committee  for  Scientific  and  In- 
dustrial Besearch  established  by  the  Dominion  Government.  He  lias  thus  severed 
a  connection  with  the  University  which  had  lasted  for  thirty-three  years,  during 
which  time  he  won  for  himself  an  eminent  position  in  the  world  of  science,  and 
was  constant  in  his  endeavours  to  promote  high  standards  of  instruction  and  re- 
search and  the  welfare  of  the  University. 

Dr.  G.  T.  Northup  resigned  his  position  to  accept  an  associate-prof essorship 
in  Spanish  Literature  at  the  University  of  Chicago.  It  was  with  regret  that  the 
University  parted  with  an  excellent  scholar  and  teacher. 

Leave  of  absence  for  the  year  was  granted  to  Professor  Fletcher  ami  Professor 
Toews  on  account  of  ill  health,  and  to  Mr.  E.  A.  Dale  to  assist  in  the  Latin  Depart- 
ment of  Queen's  University.

There  were  622  fewer  students  registered  in  the  University  during  the  past 
session  than  in  the  previous  academic  year.  It  is  interesting  to  observe  that  the 
number  of  women  in  attendance  was  almost  exactly  the  same  in  both  years.  The 
registration  of  men  students,  however,  cannot  be  taken  as  indicating  the  attendance 
during  the  course  of  the  session,  because  voluntary  recruiting  during  the  earlier 
part  of  the  year  continued  to  exercise  a  strong  influence  upon  the  undergraduates 
and  led  to  rapid  and  large  enlistment,  with  the  result  that  by  the  end  of  January 
there  were  not  more  than  1,100  men.  engaged  in  the  regular  work  of  the  University. 
It  is  possible  to  give  a  more  accurate  report  than  in  the  earlier  years  of  the  war  as 
to  the  condition  of  the  University  during  the  period  when  in  normal  times  its 
activities  are  at  their  height,  owing  to  the  fact  that  in  January,  when  the  National 
Service  campaign  was  under  way,  all  students,  men  and  women,  were  required  to 
sign  a  card  on  which  they  indicated  whether  they  would  be  willing  to  undertake 
some  form  of  national  service.  At  that  time  1,0-27  men  and  857  women  signed 
cards,  and  of  these  over  l',200  signified  their  willingness  to  work  during  the  summer. 
In  addition  there  were  medical  students,  many  of  whom  were  expected  to  follow 
during  the  summer  the  line  of  their  professional  career.  I  would  call  attention  to 
the  appended  report  on  National  Service. 

As  in  the  two  previous  years  the  session  was  shortened  by  three  weeks  and 
Commencement  was  held  on  May  18,  the  call  for  students  to  work  on  the  farms 
being  an  additional  reason  for  an  earlier  closing  of  the  academic  year. 

Unfortunately  the  work  of  the  University  was  seriously  interfered  with  owing 
to  the  necessity,  on  account  of  lack  of  coal,  of  closing  the  main  buildings  from 
February  14  to  March  5.  It  was  possible,  however,  to  heat  some  buildings  and  to 
keep  the  frost  out  of  the  laboratories.  Arrangements  were  made  for  conducting 
many  of  the  classes  through  the  co-operation  of  friends  of  the  University,  and 
especial  thanks  are  due  to  Principal  Grange  of  the  Veterinary  College  and  Dr. 
Vogt  of  the  Toronto  Conservatory  of  Music,  who  placed  several  rooms  at  our 
disposal.  The  interruption  proved  to  be  less  serious  than  was  at  one  time  antici- 
pated, but  it  was  a  misfortune  which  is  greatly  to  be  regretted,  and  it  has  been 
provided  against  for  the  present  session. 

As  was  to  be  expected  the  academic  work  of  the  year  has  not  been  in  most 
cases  of  the  same  quality  as  before  the  war.  The  spirit  of  the  students  was  not  as 
keen  as  in  normal  times;  they  were  living  in  the  midst  of  more  or  less  distraction 
and  the  instructors  felt  the  increasing  strain  of  the  war. 

The  work  of  the  Board  of  Graduate  Studies  developed  well  during  the  year. 
Three  of  the  four  new  fellowships,  to  which  reference  was  made  in  my  last  report, 
were  awarded,  one  each  to  a  graduate  from  Manitoba,  -McGill  and  Toronto.  The 
graduate  fellowship  established  by  the  American  Alumni  Association  was  at  their 
request  given  to  the  Department  of  Biochemistry.  It  is  now  evident  that  a  Large 
field  for  graduate  work  is  opening  up  before  this  University,  and  that,  if  we  afford 
reasonable  opportunities,  students  will  come  from  other  parts  of  the  Dominion  to 
Toronto  for  graduate  work. 

The  maintenance  of  the  regular  courses  in  the  Faculty  of  Medicine  was  con- 
tinued with  greater  difficulty  than  usual  owing  to  the  absence  of  so  many  members 
of  the  staff  on  active  service.  The  difficulty  was  further  increased  by  the  action  of 
the  Faculty  in  undertaking  to  begin  the  fifth  year  classes  in  May.  1916,  and  con- 
tinuing them  with  one  month's  intermission  until  December,  1916.  This  was  done 
at  the  request  of  the  military  authorities  in  order  to  provide  at  the  earliest  moment 
qualified  medical  officers  for  new  units.  It  was  announced  last  year  that  the  new 
six  vear^"  .nurse  in  Medicine  would  begin  in  1918.  but  the  continuance  of  the  war 


8 

has  made  it  necessary  to  postpone  the  inauguration  of  the  plan  until  one  year  after 
peace  has  been  declared. 

The  most  important  feature  in  the  work  of  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science 
during  the  past  year  has  been  the  initiation  of  a  scheme  of  scientific  research  which 
has  been  authorized  by  the  Senate  of  the  University,  and  for  which  the  Governors 
have  secured  special  funds  from  the  Government. 

In  the  reports  made  to  the  Dean  by  the  heads  of  departments  in  the  Faculty 
of  Applied  Science  there  are  several  matters  worthy  of  attention.  Again,  as  for 
several  years  past,  Professors  Rosebrugh  and  McGowan  refer  to  the  condition  of  the 
Engineering  Building.  As  it  will  be  quite  inadequate  for  the  work  to  be  clone 
when  numbers  increase  after  the  war,  it  is  prudent  to  take  immediate  steps  to  plan 
for  a  building  to  replace  it.  Towards  the  end  of  last  session  and  throughout  the 
summer  a  large  portion  of  this  building  was  put  at  the  disposal  of  the  Royal  Flying 
Corps.  Arrangements  have  been  made  for  the  Corps  to  continue  the  use  of  rooms 
during  the  coming  academic  year. 

The  Department  of  Chemical  Engineering  is  the  only  one  in  which  there  has 
been  an  increase  in  the  number  of  students.  This  is  accounted  for  by  the  great 
demand  for  chemists  in  war  work. 

Professor  Guess  carried  out  experiments  for  the  Government  in  connection  with 
the  refining  of  nickel  and  the  production  of  copper-nickel  steels.  For  this  purpose 
the  Hon.  G.  Howard  Ferguson  arranged  that  a  special  chemist  should  be  provided. 

Owing  to  the  need  of  better  facilities  for  practical  surveying  the  Board  author- 
ized Professor  L.  B.  Stewart  to  report  upon  the  possibility  of  securing  a  suitable 
piece  of  land  in  a  part  of  the  Province  which  is  not  adapted  for  agricultural' pur- 
poses, in  order  that  in  the  summer  a  course  of  instruction  might  be  given  during  the 
last  month  or  six  weeks  of  the  vacation. 

In  the  spring  of  1917  the  Superintendent  of  Education  forwarded  to  the 
President  of  the  University  a  report  as  to  conditions  which  he  found  on  visiting 
the  Faculty  of  Education.  He  complained  that  the  staff  was  insufficient  and  that 
the  accommodations  were  inadequate.  The  curriculum  also  he  deemed  unsatis- 
factory. The  conditions  as  to  the  staff  and  accommodation  have  been  remedied  in 
part  at  least  for  the  forthcoming  session.  In  regard  to  the  curriculum  the  Dean  of 
the  Faculty  of  Education  has  had  many  conferences  with  the  Superintendent  of 
Education  and  has  introduced  substantial  changes. 

A  portrait  of  the  late  Mrs.  Massey  Treble  was  placed  in  the  library  of  the 
Household  Science  Building  by  the  staff,  graduates  and  students  as  a  tribute  to  her 
generosity  towards  and  far-sighted  interest  in  that  department. 

The  University  College  Women's  Union  was  opened  last  session  under  the 
direction  of  Miss  Wrong  as  Resident  Head.  Though  the  work  of  the  first  year  was 
tentative  and  the  membership  of  the  undergraduates  voluntary,  the  Union  has  sup- 
plied a  long  felt  want,  the  value  of  which  to  the  College  became  so  obvious  that  in  the 
spring  a  petition  signed  by  a  large  majority  of  the  women  undergraduates  of 
University  College  was  presented  to  the  Board  of  Governors,  asking  that  during  the 
forthcoming  year  a  compulsory  fee  should  be  authorized. 

After  careful  discussion  the  Senate  transmitted  to  the  Board  of  Governors  a 
recommendation  that,  beginning  in  the  autumn  of  1917,  a  system  of  compulsory 
military  instruction  and  physical  training  should  be  established  in  the  University 
for  all  men  undergraduates  proceeding  to  a  degree. 


The  war  activities  of  the  University  were  continued  on  the  lines  of  my  last 
report.     The  number  of  those  who  have  enlisted  now  stands  at  4,052,  made  up  as

A  very  large  number  of  distinctions  have  been  conferred  upon  members  of  the 
University  on  active  service  which  are  an  evidence  of  their  splendid  qualities  as 
soldiers  and  as  men.  Details  will  be  given  in  the  Roll  of  Service  which  is  soon  to 
be  published. 

After  a  long  period  of  waiting  due  to  the  vicissitudes  of  war,  No.  -i  Canadian 
General  Hospital  (University  of  Toronto)  has  arrived  (in  September)  in  England 
from  Salonica  and  has  been  stationed  under  the  command  of  Lt.-Colonel  W.  B. 
Hendry,  D.S.O.,  at  Basingstoke  in  Hampshire.  Two  winters  and  two  summers  in 
Salonica  tested  the  qualities  of  the  Hospital  staff  very  thoroughly  and  they  stood 
the  test  with  conspicuous  success.  The  Hospital  was  asked  by  the  authorities  to 
undertake  a  particularly  arduous  duty,  which  they  performed  to  the  satisfaction 
of  those  who  sent  them  and  of  their  patients,  and  the  high  quality  of  their  work  is 
indicated  by  the  conferring  of  the  C.B.  upon  Colonel  J.  A.  Roberts  and  the  D.S.O. 
upon  Lt.-Colonel  W.  B.  Hendry. 

The  Women's  Hospital  Supply  Association,  which  has  been  such  an  effective 
auxiliary  to  the  Base  Hospital  and  has  contributed  large  gifts  to  the  Red  Cross,  con- 
tinued its  work  during  the  year.  Any  requirements  of  the  Hospital  which  may  be 
occasioned  by  its  transfer  to  England  will  be  immediately  met.

At  the  opening  of  the  Michaelmas  term  it  was  decided  to  organize  the  Can- 
adian Officers  Training  Corps  temporarily  into  four  platoons  until  it  was  seen 
what  the  enrolment  would  be,  and  to  make  the  instruction  applicable  to  first  year 
men.  Academic  credit  was  allowed  only  to  these  and  to  such  men  in  other  years  as 
had  not  hitherto  drilled  with  the  corps,  but  others  were  encouraged  to  take  the  drill 
as  well.  Instructional  classes  were  organized  according  to  the  syllabus  for  Cer- 
tificate "A"  as  well  as  classes  in  Signalling  for  any  who  wished  to  qualify  for  that 
branch  of  the  service.  The  entire  enrolment  was  524,  viz.,  11  company  officers 
and  513  rank  and  file,  of  whom  85  had  been  members  in  the  previous  year.  The 
signalling  class  numbered  36. 

Under  the  offer  from  the  British  War  Office  for  candidates  for  commissions  in 
the  British  Army,  five  drafts,  amounting  to  130  men,  were  organized  and  despatched 
during  the  year,  and  from  reports  received  from  time  to  time  it  is  evident  that  these 
men  are  bringing  honour  to  the  University. 

The  work  of  the  Overseas  Company  of  the  Canadian  Officers  Training  Corps, 
under  the  command  of  Major  Needier  and  Captain  Wallace,  has  gone  forward  with 
great  success.  Their  headquarters  are  in  Burwash  Hall,  and  they  are  organized 
for  the  purpose  of  training  junior  officers,  the  majority  of  whom  take  commissions 
in  the  British  Army.  The  following  statistics  will  give  a  general  idea  of  the  scope 
of  the  Company's  work: — 

Men  sent  to  England  as  candidates  for  Imperial  Commissions .  .  259 

Men  sent  as  cadets  or  officers  in-  Royal  Flying  Corps 54 

Men  sent  as  cadets  or  officers  in  Royal  Naval  Air  Service 21 

Men  who  have  secured  commissions  in  C.E.F 16 

Men  who  have  become  N.C.O's  in  C.E.F.   17 

Men  transferred  to  C.E.F.  as  privates 12 

Men  discharged  as  medically  unfit 16

No.  67  Battery  (University  of  Toronto)  spent  last  winter  at  Exhibition  Camp 
and  in  the  spring  moved  to  Petawawa  Camp.  The  Commanding  Officer  was  Captain 
Orde,  B.A.,  of  Trinity  College,  who  has  had  a  great  deal  of  active  service  in  France 
and  in  Mesopotamia.  Under  Captain  Orde  the  Battery  reached  a  high  state'  of 
efficiency,-  but  unfortunately  his  health  has  given  way  and  it  has  been  necessary 
for  him  to  resign  his  position.  The  new  Commanding  Officer  is  Captain  B.  E. 
Cawley,  of  Trinity  College  and  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science. 

Professor  G.  0.  Smith  was  appointed  by  the  Board  of  Governors  to  prepare 
and  publish  a  Roll  of  Service,  which  is  to  contain  the  names  of  all  present  and 
former  members  of  this  University  who  have  enlisted  for  active  service.  As  may 
be  readily  understood  this  undertaking  involves  a  great  deal  of  work,  but  it  is  hoped 
that  the  Roll  will  be  issued  in  the  month  of  November,  1917. 

Last  winter  an  extremely  promising  piece  of  work  was  begun  under  the  direc- 
tion of  Dr.  E.  A.  Bott,  of  the  Psychological  Department,  in  the  way  of  the  re- 
education of  disabled  returned  soldiers.  The  work  lias  expanded  rapidly  and  has 
been  taken  over  by  the  Dominion  Hospitals'  Commission  with  Dr.  Bott  still  in 
charge,  but  with  assistance  from  members  of  the  medical  faculty  and  others.  In 
the  spring  it  was  transferred  to  much  larger  quarters  in  Hart  House,  where  through 
the  contributions  of  generous  friends  extensive  apparatus  has  been  prepared  and  a 
lar^e  number  of  soldiers  have  been  treated.

The  work  of  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory  in  the  manufacture  of  tetanus  antitoxin 
and  other  sera  for  the  army  has  been  continued  uninterruptedly  throughout  the 
year. 

In  October,  1916,  when  the  general  contribution  was  being  raised  for  the 
British  Eed  Cross,  the  University,  its  Colleges  and  Hospitals  contributed  $5,782, 
of  which  $3,862  came  from  the  staff  and  $1,920  from  the  students.  Also,  in 
January,  1917,  the  University  contributed  $14,325  for  the  Toronto  and  York 
County  Patriotic  Fund. 

Professor  and  Madame  Ledoux,  who  came  to  us  from  the  University  of 
Brussels,  continued  to  be  the  guests  of  the  staff  of  the  University. 

The  Provisional  School  of  Infantry  and  the  School  of  Musketry  for  Military 
Division  No.  2,  the  work  of  which  has  been  largely  performed  by  members  of  the 
University  staff,  occupied  quarters  in  the  University  during  the  winter  months. 

At  the  request  of  the  Eoyal  Flying  Corps,  rooms  in  the  old  School  of  Science 
building,  the  Examination  Hall  and  two  of  the  three  men's  Residences,  together  with 
the  Dining  Hall,  were  set  apart  for  their  use  during  the  spring  and  summer. 

On  the  entrance  of  the  United  States  into  the  war  the  President  sent  a  letter 
of  greeting  to  each  graduate  of  the  University  living  in  the  United  States.  Many 
answers  were  received  which  were  interesting  as  showing  how  strongly  our  graduates 
approved  of  the  action  of  President  Wilson  in  placing  his  country  actively  on  the 
side  of  the  Allies. 

Two  noteworthy  Convocations  were  held  during  the  academic  year,  the  first  on 
January  23,  when  the  degree"  of  Doctor  of  Laws  was  conferred  on  His  Excellency 
The  Duke  of  Devonshire,  Governor-General  of  the  Dominion.  Since  his  arrival 
in  the  country  His  Excellency  has  visited  the  University  on  several  occasions,  and, 
as  was  to  be  expected  from  one  who  is  the  Chancellor  of  the  -  University  of  Leeds, 
he  has  evinced  great  interest  in  our  work. 

The  second  Convocation,  which  was  held  on  May  26th,  was  memorable  as  being 
the  occasion  on  which  the  degree  of  Doctor  of  Laws  was  conferred  upon  the  Right 
Honourable  Arthur  James  Balfour,  who  visited  Toronto  in  connection  with  his 
mission  to  the  United  States. 

In  January  the  University  shared  with  the  City  in  offering  a  welcome  to 
members  of  the  "  Bonne  Entente  "  from  the  Province  of  Quebec,  and  held  a  special 
convocation  at  which  an  honorary  degree  was  conferred  upon  Sir  George  Garneau. 
As  a  mark  of  appreciation  of  the  way  in  which  they  were  received,  the  visitors  on 
their  return  home  sent  the  University  a  cheque  for  $1,000  to  establish  "  The  Bonne 
Entente  Prize." 

In  commemoration  of  the  50th  anniversary  of  the  Federation  of  the  Dominion 
of  Canada  a  series  of  lectures  was  delivered  in  the  month  of  March  in  the  University. 
The  lecturers  and  subjects  were  as  follows : 

"  The  Creation  of  the  Federal  System  in  Canada,"  by  George  M.  Wrong,  Pro- 
fessor of  History  in  the  University. 

"  Some  Political  Leaders  in  the  Canadian  Federation."  by  Sir  John  Willison, 
LL.D. 

"  The  Working  of  Federal  Institutions  in  Canada,"  by  Z.  A.  Lash.  K.C.,  LL.D., 
sometime  Deputy  Minister  of  Justice. 

"The  Quality  of  Canadian  Life."  by  R.  A.  Falconer.  C.M.C..  President  of  the 
University. 


13      ' 

Following  on  these  another  series  was  delivered  on  the  general  theme  "  Women 
and  Citizenship."     The  lecturers  and  subjects  were : — 

"  The  Duties  of  Citizenship  in  Canada,"  by  Professor  G.  M.  Wrong. 

"  Democracy  and  Human  Nature,"  by  Professor  W.  S.  Milner  and  Professor 
M.  W.  Wallace. 

"  The  Formation  of  Public  Opinion,"  by  Professor  E.  M.  Maclver. 

"  Some  Problems  of  Government,"  by  N.  W.  Powell,  Esq.,  K.C. 

"  The  Machinery  of  Provincial  Government,"  by  Sir  William  Hearst,  K.C.M.G., 
LL.D. 

On  November  10th  Professor  Jacques  Loeb,  of  the  Kockefeller  Institute  for 
Medical  Eesearch,  New  York,  delivered  a  lecture  on  "  Adaptation,"  and  on 
January  30th,  Professor  Gustave  Lanson,  of  the  University  of  Paris,  delivered  a 
lecture  on  "  Les  traits  essentiels  et  caracteristiques  de  Tesprit  frangais." 

Mr.  Moure  has  kindly  continued  his  work  in  connection  with  the  providing  of 
recitals  upon  the  organ,  which  were  as  follows: 

Mr.  F.  A.  Moure,  Bursar  of  the  University  (5  recitals). 

Mr.  Arthur  H.  Egg,  F.E.C.O.,  Montreal. 

Mr.  G.  H.  Knight,  Mus.  Baa,  Toronto. 

Mr.  T.  J.  Palmer,  A.E.C.O.,  Toronto. 

Professor  F.  B.  Stiven,  Oberlin  College,  Ohio. 

Unfortunately  the  coal  scarcity  necessitated  a  premature  closing  of  the  series. 
Since  the  organ  was  installed  five  years  ago  seventy-two  public  recitals  have  been 
given,  of  which  Mr.  Moure  has  contributed  twenty-four. 

Through  the  kindness  of  Mr.  Crane,  of  New  York,  a  concert  was  given  in  Con- 
vocation Hall  on  May  1st  by  the  Choir  from  the  Eussian  Cathedral  of  New  York. 

Again  it  is  a  pleasure  to  record  benefactions  which  the  University  has  received 
during  the  year.  Mrs.  H.  D.  Warren  has  continued  the  payment  of  the  salary  of 
the  Director  of  Social  Service.  Sir  Edmund  Osier,  Sir  Joseph  Flavelle,  and  Colonel 
Leonard  have  contributed  the,  four  fellowships  of  $500  each  for  postgraduate  work, 
and  the  American  Toronto  Alumni  a  fellowship  for  the  same  amount.  Colonel  A.  E. 
Gooderham  has  nearly  completed  the  laboratories  for  the  manufacture  of  antitoxins 
and  sera.  Dr.  S.  Cummings,  of  Toronto,  has  presented  a  very  valuable  X-ray  appar- 
atus to  the  Physical  Laboratory.  A  legacy  of  one  thousand  dollars  has  been  re- 
ceived to  institute  a  Scholarship  to  be  known  as  the  George  E.  E.  Cockburn  Scholar- 
ship. Dr.  Alexander  Hamilton  has  donated  $800  to  establish  the  Alexander  Edwin 
Hamilton  Library  Fund.  To  the  Medical  Eesearch  Fund  the  following  gentlemen 
have  continued  their  handsome  contributions :  Sir  John  Eaton,  Sir  Edmund  Osier, 
Colonel  E.  W.  Leonard,  J.  L.  Englehart,  Esq.,  and  Z.  A.  Lash,  Esq.,  K.C.  .Special 
gifts  are  recorded  in  the  following  reports. 

All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted. 

Eobt.  A.  Falconer

It  goes  without  saying  that  the  figures  show  a  further  falling  off  in  the  attend- 
ance of  men  owing  to  the  continuance  of  the  war:  the  attendance  of  women  shows 
a  slight  decrease  of  fifteen  as  compared  with  last  year.  Nevertheless,  for  the  first 
time  in  the  history  of  the  College  the  number  of  women  undergraduates  is  con- 
siderably in  excess  of  the  number  of  men.  Of  the  freshman  class  of  last  October. 
as  well  as  of  the  other  classes  then  registered,  some  have  already  withdrawn  them- 
selves for  enlistment  for  overseas  service ;  others  have  joined  the  Canadian  Officers 
Training  Corps.  The  figures  in  the  above  tables  included — so  far  as  the  men  are 
concerned — those  who  have  enlisted  for  service  abroad. 

Perhaps  the  most  satisfactory  feature  of  this  year  of  interregnum  so  to  speak, 
this  year  during  which  the  College  is  marking  time  in  a  sense,  has  been  the  opening 
of  the  Women's  Union  at  85  St.  George  Street  for  the  women  undergraduates  of 
University  College. 

The  admission  charge  has  been  fof  this  year  voluntary  and  has  been  placed  at 
five  dollars.  The  admirable  management  of  the  Union  by  Miss  Wrong  and  the 
intrinsic  advantages  which  it  offers  to  women  students  have  combined  to  bring  a 
large  membership  and  a  good  balance  sheet.  It  appears  probable  that  a  smaller 
yearly  charge  for  membership  would  be  sufficient  if  all  students  of  the  College 
belonged,  and  a  large  majority  have  accordingly  petitioned  the  Governors  to  change 
the  membership  from  a  voluntary  to  a  compulsory  basis  and  the  charge  from  five  to 
three  dollars.  Among  the  few  students  who  do  not  already  belong  are  some,  who, 
in  my  judgment,  are  likely  to  derive  special  benefit  from  membership.  The 
advantages  of  the  Union,  it  should  be  added,  have  been  enhanced  by  the  kindness  of 
Miss  McCormick,  who  has  given  four  hundred  dollars  for  the  equipment  of  the  did' 
house  with  additional  furniture. 

The  Department  of  Latin  has  suffered — but  less  than  it  would  have  suffered  in 
any  other  year — by  the  serious  illness  of  Professor  Fletcher  and  Dr.   Johnston. 


16 

Professor  Oswald  Smith  and  Mr.  Duff  have  taken  over  this  work  with  some  assist- 
ance from  Victoria.  The  difficulty  of  handling  the  large  Latin  classes  in  the  first 
and  second  years  was  further  aggravated  by  the  coal  shortage,  which  involved  the 
closing  of  the  College  building — the  main  building — for  nineteen  days. 

The  classes  in  French  also  suffered  a  little  from  this  cause,  but  in  both  depart- 
ments the  greater  part  of  the  work  was  maintained  in  Professors'  houses,  in  Queen's 
Hall,  and  its  annexes,  and  by  the  kindness  of  Principal  Crawford,  in  the  University 
School.  The  other  classes  and  all  honour  classes  were  carried  on  without  interrup- 
tion in  every  department  of  the  work  of  the  College  wherever  the  war  has  left  with 
us  even  a  handful  of  students.  A  few  classes,  always  small,  have  disappeared 
entirely  through  enlistment. 

(2)  Report  of  the  Dean  of  the  Faculty  of  Medicine  (C.  K.  Clarke,  M.D.). 

The  year  has  been  a  disturbed  one,  as  is  no  doubt  the  case  in  every  department 
of  the  University,  and  war  conditions  have  made  it  difficult  to  carry  on  the  work 
as  carefully  and  thoroughly  as  could  be  desired. 

At  the  request  of  the  Department  of  Militia  a  summer  session  was  organized 
and  seventy-five  students  in  the  fifth  year  registered.  The  majority  of  these 
graduated  in  the  early  winter  and  at  a  special  Convocation  on  December  11th  all  of 
those  who  had  volunteered  for  overseas  service  had  their  degrees  conferred  on  them, 
and  went  on  military  service  immediately. 

The  work  involved  in  giving  this  special  course  was  a  great  tax  on  the  teachers, 
who  have  assumed  the  burden  with  a  cheerfulness  that  must  receive  a  warm  tribute 
from  those  at  the  head  of  affairs.  It  meant,  of  course,  that  these  teachers  had  to 
give  up  a  great  part  of  their  summer  holiday. 

We  had  117  students  register  in  the  first  year  as  against  137  a  year  ago. 
This  proves  that  the  interest  in  the  profession  of  Medicine  has  not  been  affected  in 
the  same  way  as  has  been  the  case  in  some  of  the  Faculties. 

The  total  number  of  students,  too,  has  dropped  from  527  to  174.  This  has 
been  caused  of  course  by  the  demands  being  made  all  the  time  for  recruits. 

The  tendency  of  the  military  authorities  is  to  discourage  recruiting  among  the 
medical  students,  as  the  demand  for  young  graduates  is  most  difficult  to  meet. 

A  number  of  junior  men  are  enlisting  this  year,  as  is  usual  in  the  spring,  and 
the  Navy  seems  to  attract  many  of  them.  Some  twenty  students  of  the  Third  and 
a  few  of  the  Fourth  Year  have  enlisted  as  Surgeon  Probationers  in  the  Navy. 

Two  of  the  professors  who  were  on  active  service  have  died.  Professor  T.  G. 
Brodie,  the  brilliant  Physiologist,  who  was  such  an  ornament  to  the  University  of 
Toronto,  both  on  account  of  his  professional  and  his  personal  qualities,  died  in 
England  on  August  20th,  1916.  It  will  be  a  most  difficult  matter  to  replace  this 
distinguished  gentleman. 

Professor  Andrew  E.  Gordon,  Associate  in  Clinical  Medicine,  who  was  taken 
ill  on  active  service  in  England,  died,  after  a  long  illness,  on  December  16th,  1916. 
No  one  in  the  Faculty  was  more  beloved  and  admired  than  Professor  Gordon.  He 
was  a  most  careful  and  thorough  teacher  and  his  influence  for  good  among  the 
students  can  scarcely  be  calculated. 

The  appointment  of  Professor  A.  B.  Macallum  to  the  Chairmanship  of  the 
Honorary  Advisory  Council  for  Scientific  and  Industrial  "Research  makes  another 
serious  gap  in  onr  ranks.  Professor  Macallum  has,  in  all  probability,  more  influence 
with  the  student  body  than  any  one  of  the  staff,  and  his  departure  is  regretted  by  all 
those  who  knew  his  true  worth  and  appreciated  his  many  great  qualities.  While  we 
rejoice  in  his  promotion  we  regret  his  departure.

(3)  Report  of  the  Dean  of  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science  and  Engineering 

(Dr.  W.  H.  Ellis). 

I  beg  to  submit  the  following  report  on  the  work  of  the  Faculty  of  Applied 
Science  and  Engineering  during  the  past  academic  year. 

The  number  of  students  registered  in  the  Faculty  in  1916-17  was  194.  dis- 
tributed as  shown  by  the  following  table: — 

First  Year  Undergraduates    68 

Second  Year  Undergraduates 47 

Third  Year  Undergraduates   31 

Fourth  Year  Undergraduate.-    48 

194 

Of  these,  157  completed  the  year  and  24  enrolled  for  active  service  overseas 
Mr.  J.  S.  Mitchell,  Demonstrator  in  Applied  Mechanics,  enrolled  as  a  Lieutenant 
with  the  Canadian  Engineers,  and  is  now  at  Crowborough,  England. 

The  work  of  the  C.O.T.C.  was  carried  on  upon  more  restricted  lines  during 
the  session,  it  being  decided  by  the  authorities  at  the  opening  of  the  Michaelmas 
term  to  limit  the  instruction  to  First  Year  men,  and  men  who  had  not  drilled  in 
previous  years,  although  any  others  who  wished  were  allowed  to  take  the  training. 
In  all  86  students  were  enrolled  in  K  Company  under  the  command  of  Lieut.  W.  M. 
Treadgold,  which  number  was  considerably  reduced  before  the  end  of  the  session 
through  enlistments. 

In  March  arrangements  were  made  for  the  Cadet  Wing  of  the  Imperial  Royal 
Flying  Corps  to  be  provided  with  space  for  their  staff  of  instruction  as  well  as  for 
practical  work  and  lectures  in  the  Engineering  Building.  Some  of  the  instruction 
was  also  given  in  the  Thermodynamics  Building  and  later  on  elsewhere  in  other 
University  buildings.  This  involved  turning  over  to  the  Royal  Flying  Corps  a 
considerable  part  of  the  Engineering  Building,  an  arrangement  which  was  possible 
owing  to  the  large  reduction  in  our  attendance  due  to  the  war  and  the  approaching 
end  of  the  session.  During  the  period  from  March  to  June,  in  addition  to  the 
work  of  the  regular  staff  of  military  instructors,  voluntary  assistance  was  given  by 
Professor  Anderson  in  Photography,  Professor  Angus  in  Internal  Combustion 
Engines  and  Professor  Roseborough  and  Mr.  J.  P.  Henderson,  of  the  Department  of 
Astro  Physics,  in  Wireless  Telegraphy.  Mr.  J.  Patterson,  of  the  Meteorological 
Observatory,  also  lectured  to  the  cadets  on  Meteorology  in  the  Engineering  Build- 
ing. Later  on  the  work  of  instruction  in  the  Royal  Flying  Corps,  under  Major 
Fisher,  became  known  as  the  School  of  Military  Aeronautics.  It  soon  became 
apparent  that  the  Royal  Flying  Corps  would  require  to  continue  their  work  during 
the  coming  session.  Arrangements  were  accordingly  made  to  fit  in  these  space 
requirements  along  with  those  of  this  Faculty  to  the  best  mutual  advantage.  This 
is  substantially  the  condition  up  to  the  present  time. 

The  Council  of  the  Faculty  appointed  a  committee  to  consider  how  best  the 
University,  and  in  particular  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science,  could  assist  in 
scientific  and  industrial  research.  This  committee  brought  in  on  April  10th  the 
following  report  which  was  adopted  by  the  Council  and  subsequently  approved  by 
the  Senate: 

It  is  proposed  that  there  be  established  within  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science 
and  Engineering  a  "  School  of  Engineering  Research."*  whoso  functions  would 
include : — 


18 

1.  Intensive  prosecution  of  scientific  investigations  on  problems  bearing  on 
or  suggested  by  the  industries  of  the  country. 

2.  Scientific  research  on  problems  of  fundamental  character,  the  sort  of  in- 
quisitive research  that  may  lead  to  new  knowledge,  the  commercial  application  of 
which  may  or  may  not  immediately  appear. 

3.  Training  in  research  methods  and  resourcefulness  of  chosen  graduates  from 
our  various  departments  by  engaging  them  for  a  period  to  co-operate  in  the  work  of 
the  School  of  Engineering  Eesearch. 

4.  Encouragement  of  our  undergraduates  by  a  new  incentive,  to  be  able  to 
qualify  for  advanced  work  in  engineering  research,  into  which  they  see  the  best 
qualified  graduates  are  invited. 

5.  Attraction  of  qualified  men  of  experience  in  industries  to  undertake  special 
problems  in  the  solution  of  which  a  certain  type  of  experience  may  be  an  essential 
asset. 

6.  Publications  in  bulletins,  and  scientific  and  industrial  periodicals. 

In  accordance  with  this  report  the  School  of  Engineering  Eesearch  was  or- 
ganized and  the  Committee  of  Management  appointed,  consisting  of  the  Dean  of 
the  Faculty,  Profs.  Anderson,  Angus,  Arkley,  Bain,  Boswell,  Gillespie,  Guess, 
Haultain,  Laing,  McGowan,  Price,  Roseborough,  Stewart  and  Wright. 

Several  researches  have  been  begun  and  are  still  in  progress. 

(4)   Repoet  of  the  Dean  of  the  Faculty  of  Foeestry  (De.  B.  E.  Feenow). 

At  the  beginning  of  the  session  only  ten  students  registered;  three  of  whom 
were  new  entrants,  the  others  returned;  one  of  these  returning  from  England  had 
been  crippled  in  the  air  service.  At  the  end  of  the  session  only  eight  remained,  one 
having  withdrawn  on  account  of  sickness,  another  having  enlisted,  the  others,  except 
two  from  foreign  countries,  having  failed  of  acceptance  for  military  service. 

The  courses  of  instruction  were  kept  up  as  usual.  The  fall  practice  camp  was 
located  at  Thor  Lake,  Ontario,  with  the  six  students  of  the  third  and  fourth  years, 
under  the  charge  of  Professor  Millar,  and  the  regular  biennial  practice  work  at  the 
Provincial  Nurseries  was  also  attended  to  with  four  students. 

Only  three  students  passed  to  the  degree,  and  one,  having  enlisted  before  the 
end  of  the  year,  has  his  degree  deferred. 

It  is  of  interest  to  note  that  nine  former  students  enlisted  in  the  various 
Forestry  Battalions  and  have  been  found  most  useful  in  superintending  logging 
and  milling  operations  in  Great  Britain  and  France,  besides  finding  opportunity  of 
making  forest  surveys,  maps,  volume  tables,  increment  studies,  and  performing 
other  real  forestry  work. 

Of  the  seventy-two  graduates  and  former  students  known  to  have  enlisted  in 
all  services,  at  this  date  (May  1)  ten  have  unfortunately  lost  their  lives  at  the 
front,  and  a  number  have  been  wounded  and  crippled.  Owing  to  this  large  with- 
drawal from  the  small  contingent  of  technical  men,  the  forest  services  of  the 
Dominion  and  British  Columbia,  undermanned  before,  have  been  badly  crippled, 
and  are  more  or  less  at  a  standstill. 

While  the  war  lasts  no  changes  in  the  course  of  instruction  and  improvement 
in  the  facilities  of  the  Faculty  arc  indicated.  I  wish,  however,  to  repeat  my  recom- 
mendation of  re-organization  intimated  in  my  last  two  years'  reports.  Such  re- 
organization contemplates  an  increase  in  staff,  an  increase  in  entrance  require- 
ments, a  permanent  practice  cam]),  and  an  extension  of  study  time  to  utilize  such 
a  camp  to  full  advantage.

(5)  Report  of  the  Dean  of  the  Faculty  of  Education  (Dr.  W.  Pakenham). 

The  number  of  students  registered  in  the  Faculty  of  Education  during  the  past 
session  (397)  compares,  not  unfavourably,  with  the  registration  in  the  previous 
year  (437).  The  number  of  women  students  in  the  regular  course  increased  in  the 
same  time  from  236  to  247  despite  the  war.  On  the  other  hand,  the  number  of  men 
students  decreased  from  107  to  72. 

The  primary  duty  of  the  Faculty  of  Education  is  to  train  teachers  for  the 
schools  of  Ontario.  These  schools  respond  quickly  to  new  social  and  industrial 
demands.  Their  history  during  the  last  decade  is  a  story  of  new  equipment,  new 
methods,  new  subjects  or  new  contents  for  old  subjects.  It  is  obvious  that  the 
Faculty  of  Education  should  not  continue  to  train  teachers  in  the  same  way  as  it 
did  ten  years  ago.  There  must  be  changes  in  its  equipment,  organization,  and 
curriculum.  There  must  be  more  lecture  rooms,  smaller  classes,  more  instructors, 
and  a  greatly  modified  curriculum.  Some  of  these  changes  will  be  effected,  it  is 
hoped,  before  the  opening  of  the  session  of  1917-18. 

While  it  is  a  primary  duty  of  the  Faculty  of  Education  to  train  teachers  for 
Ontario  schools,  it  is  not  an  unimportant  duty  to  develop  public  interest  in  educa- 
tion and  to  encourage  investigations  into  educational  problems.  It  should  offer, 
therefore,  advanced  work  in  professional  education.  In  this  connection  the  regis- 
tration of  22  students  from  other  Provinces  than  Ontario  is  significant.  *  Significant 
also  is  the  registration  of  22  experienced  teachers  in  the  courses  for  degrees  in 
Pedagogy  and  of  20  in  the  Summer  Courses  in  Advanced  Education. 

Although  these  are  trying  times  for  all  professional  journals,  The  School  con- 
tinues to  prosper.     At  the  close  of  the  session  its  circulation  was  5,000. 

As  the  year  closed  the  Faculty  of  Education  suffered  a  very  grave  loss  in  the 
death  of  Principal  Groves  of  Ryerson  School.  As  Principal  of  Ryerson  School,  Mr. 
Groves  supervised  for  ten  years  a  large  part  of  the  practical  work  of  the  Faculty  of 
Education.  For  three  years  he  gave  instruction  in  Methods  in  Public  School 
Subjects,  and  for  seven  years  in  School  Management.  This  is  not  the  place  to 
refer  to  Mr.  Groves  as  a  great  teacher  and  school  administrator.  In  these  capacities 
he  served  the  City  of  Toronto  long  and  well.  The  staff  of  the  Faculty  of  Education 
may  bear  testimony,  however,  to  his  worth  as  a  trainer  of  teachers.  He  was  an 
unwearied  and  loyal  colleague.  Long  service  in  the  school  room  and  a  sound 
judgment  gave  him  wisdom  in  counsel.  He  was  too  busy  to  be  patient  with  theories. 
In  the  wear  and  tear  of  forty  years  in  the  school  room  he  did  not  lose  his  en- 
thusiasm for  teaching  and  teachers,  and  this  enthusiasm  was  perhaps  his  greatest 
gift  to  student-teachers. 

The  success  of  the  Faculty  of  Education  is  dependent  upon  the  character  of 
its  practice-schools.  The  University  Schools  are  efficient,  A  report  by  the  Head- 
master is  appended. 

Memorandum  on  The  University  Schools  by  the  Headmaster. 

The  results  of  the  Matriculation  examinations  for  1916  again  proved  the  in- 
dustry of  the  students  and  the  efficiency  of  their  teachers.  Complete  Matriculation 
was  obtained  by  50  boys,  of  whom  12  were  passed  on  the  recommendation  of  the  staff 
on  account  of  enlistment.  Fourteen  others  secured  partial  matriculation.  In  the 
Honour  examination,  19  boys  obtained  among  fchem  82  honours,  26  of  these  being 
first-class.  We  were  particularly  fortunate  in  the  scholarship  examinations,  3  boys 
ranking  for  17  scholarships.     P.  P>.  Horwood  won  the  First  General  Proficiency  and 


20 

Prince  of  Wales  prize,  ranking  for  9  other  scholarships,  including  the  rirst  in 
Classics.  B.  B.  West  was  awarded  the  Fourth  Edward  Blake  Scholarship  in 
General  Proficiency,  and  ranked  forihree  others.  W.  H.  Noble  was  awarded  the 
second  scholarship  in  Mathematics  and  Moderns,  and  ranked  for  two  others.  The- 
School,  in  thus  winning  the  Prince  of  Wales  prize  for  two  years  in  succession,  has 
set  a  record  which  it  will  be  difficult  to  equal. 

The  register  of  attendance  in  September,  1916,  showed  an  undiminished  total. 
War  conditions  have,  however,  just  as  last  year,  somewhat  lessened  the  number 
during  the  year.  Already  nine  boys  have  enlisted  and  five  others  intend  to  do 
so,  if  the  results  of  the  matriculation  tests  now  in  progress  at  the  school  are  favour- 
able. About  forty  have  expressed  the  wish  to  enter  farm  service  this  summer,  and 
a  number  of  others  will  join  the  ranks  of  the  workers  in  munitions.  The  patriotic 
spirit  of  masters  and  boys  has  also  been  shown  in  the  liberal  contributions  to  the 
British  Bed  Cross  and  the  Patriotic  funds. 

The  roll  of  U.  T.  S.  masters  and  boys  on  active  service  now  contain  about  250 
names.  Of  the  four  masters  enlisted,  Lieutenant  II.  G.  Manning  was  severely 
wounded  and  is  now  on  sick  leave,  while  of  the  boys  twelve  have  lost  their  lives. 
The  record  also  shows  four  decorated  for  valour. 

Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the  "  great  game  "  has  practically  denuded  the 
School  of  those  of  military  age,  the  athletic  sports  have  been  carried  on  with  spirit. 
Nearly  300  took  part  in  the  sports  of  Field  Day,  and  81  entered  in  the  cross-country 
run.  This  shows  that  the  policy  of  the  school  in  encouraging  the  active  participa- 
tion of  the  largest  number  in  sports  is  achieving  results,  despite  the  lack  of  adequate 
playgrounds  and  of  the  long-desired  gymnasium.  The  most  notable  achievement 
in  athletics  during  the  year  stands  to  the  credit  of  the  hockey  team,  which,  for  the 
first  time  in  the  history  of  the  school,  competed  in  the  O.H.A.  Junior  Series. 

In  December  the  annual  reception  to  parents  was  held  and  was  very  successful. 
The  guests  included  not  only  about  600  of  the  parents  and  friends  of  the  boys,  but 
also  many  representatives  of  the  Imperial  Order  of  the  Daughters  of  the  Empire, 
who  came  to  view  the  splendid  gallery  of  historical  paintings,  the  gift  of  the  Order. 
December  was  also  signalized  by  the  second  publication  of  "  The  x^nnals  of  the 
University  Schools."  This  issue  covers  the  progress  of  the  School  for  the  past  two 
years,  and  emphasizes  the  part  played  by  the  School  in  the  war.  Copies  were  sent 
to  all  the  boys  who  had  enlisted.  Credit  for  its  success  is  due  to  the  committee  in 
charge  of  the  work,  and  in  particular  to  the  editor,  Mr.  J.  O.  Carlisle,  and  the 
Chairman,  Mr.  J.  T.  Crawford. 


(6)  The  President's  Beport  to  the  Senate  on  National  Service. 
To  the  Senate  of  the  University  of  Toronto : 

In  accordance  with  the  instructions  of  the  Senate  the  National  Service  Card 
was  issued  and  announcement  was  made  that  every  student,  man  or  woman,  in  the 
University  must  fill  in  one  and  return  it  to  the  Begistrar  or  Secretary  of  the  re- 
spective College  or  Faculty  not  later  than  January  31st.  I  am  glad  to  announce 
that  nearly  all  students  of  the  University  in  attendance  have  returned  cards  with 
the  questions  answered.

offered  to  do  work  in  national  service :

Of  men  of  all  classes  in  the  University  there  are  617  who  are  prepared  to  do 
national  service  in  agriculture,  munitions,  or  in  some  other  employment. 

With  regard  to  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science  it  must  be  borne  in  mind  that 
no  chemists  or  those  competent  to  do  wireless  telegraphy  are  permitted  to  enlist  as 
ordinary  combatants.     Of  those  qualified  for  such  service  already  five  chemists  and

four  wireless  operators  have  been  chosen.  It  is  expected  also  that  increasing- 
demands  will  be  made  for  mechanical  engineers  and  for  men  qualified  to  serve  in 
construction  or  flying  corps,  so  that  apart  from  munition  work  as  ordinarily  under- 
stood it  is  altogether  probable  that  by  the  end  of  the  term  a  large  number  of  students 
in  Applied  Science  will  be  enlisted  for  active  military  or  other  national  service. 

In  the  Faculty  of  Medicine  there  is  a  very  small  fifth  year  by  reason  of  the 
fact  that  the  regular  fifth  year  graduated  last  December,  and  nearly  all  who  received 
degrees  are  now  on  active  service.  I  understand  that  from  the  first  three  years  in 
Medicine  about  80  have  volunteered  to  enlist  for  a  Casualty  Clearing  Station. 

Of  the  595  women  students  in  the  Faculty  of  Arts  there  are  524  in  good  health, 
71  whose  health  is  only  fair.  Of  these  540  are  willing  to  do  national  service,  131 
in  agriculture,  332  in  munitions,  52  in  either  agriculture  or  munitions,  10  in 
chemistry,  15  in  dietetics.  Another  opening  for  the  work  of  the  women  students 
will  be  the  Bed  Cross.  It  is  obvious,  therefore,  that  a  very  large  proportion  of  the 
women  who  are  physically  fit  are  willing  to  undertake  whatever  kind  of  national 
service  they  are  best  fitted  for. 

The  two  faculties  which  are  most  likely  to  supply  the  largest  number  of  workers 
for  national  service  are  those  of  Arts  and  Applied  Science,  because  in  each  of  these 
the  regular  work  closes  soon  after  the  middle  of  April,  so  that  it  will  be  possible  for 
these  students  to  devote  a  much  longer  period  to  such  service  than  those  from  the 
Faculties  of  Medicine  and  Education,  the  professional  requirements  of  which  will 
not  permit  the  closing  of  the  term  before  the  end  of  May. 

Already  authoritative  requests  have  come  from  chemists  and  wireless  operators, 
and  students  have  been  permitted  to  count  this  service  as  enlistment  and  have  been 
given  their  year.  It  is  doubtful,  however,  whether  the  demands  for  ordinary 
munition  work  will  necessitate  permission  being  granted  to  women  and  men  students 
who  are  in  poor  health  or  who  have  been  rejected  for  military  service  to  leave  before 
the  regular  work  of  the  year  has  been  completed.  It  is  not  yet  known  whether  the 
demands  of  agriculture  will  be  so  pressing  that  exemptions  may  be  asked  for  by 
any  considerable  number  of  students. 

As  a  general  result  of  this  registration  it  may  be  observed  that  of  men  and 
women  students  of  all  classes  there  are  over  1,200  who  are  willing  to  do  some  kind 
of  national  service  during  the  summer.  Of  the  remaining  students  of  the  Uni- 
versity now  in  attendance  there  will  doubtless  be  some  more  available  from  the 
Faculty  of  Medicine  and  from  the  Faculty  of  Education  when  the  work  of  the 
session  is  completed  at  the  end  of  May.  I  understand  also  that  there  is  a  proba- 
bility that  a  large  number  of  women  students  will  be  employed  in  fruit  harvesting 
in  the  summer  and  early  autumn.  It  may  be  necessary  for  the  University  to  grant 
these  students  dispensation  from  attendance  for  the  first  half  of  October  with  the 
remission  of  the  ordinary  fine. 

All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted.

(7)   Report  of  the  Librarian  (H.  11.  Langton,  Esq.,  M.A.). 

The  number  of  volumes  added  to  the  Library  during  the  entire  year  ending  30th 
June  is  3,952  and  the  number  of  pamphlets,  755.  making  the  total  contents  of  the 
Library  118.131  bound   volumes  and  50,296  pamphlets.

Statistics  of  the  use  of  the  Library  by  students,  as  compared  with  those  of  the 
two  previous  years,  showing  continued  decrease  owing  to  the  war  are  as  follows : 

No.  of  day  tickets   

No.  of  books  taken  for  the  night 

Average  No.  of  readers  at  any  one  time  

The  expenditure  for  the  year  was  below  normal  and  fell  short  of  the  appropria- 
tion, owing  to  the  difficulty  in  obtaining  books  in  Europe.  Of  course,  nothing  was 
obtained  that  was  published  in  any  of  the  countries  with  which  the  British  Empire 
is  at  war.  The  intensified  submarine  campaign,  beginning  in  February,  1917, 
caused  marine  insurance  rates  to  rise.  This,  together  with  the  danger  of  losing 
shipments  for  which  no  insurance  would  compensate,  caused  the  adoption  of  a  policy 
of  allowing  purchases  not  immediately  wanted  for  professors  or  students  to  remain 
in  storage  in  the  countries  in  which  they  were  bought,  a  due  proportion  of  the  pur- 
chase money  remaining  unpaid  until  the  actual  receipt  of  the  volumes.  The  same 
policy  will  be  carried  out  during  the  next  year  and  probably  until  the  termination 
of  the  war. 

During  the  latter  part  of  the  year  three  members  of  the  Library  staff  were  given 
leave  of  absence  for  national  service  purposes,  supplying  substitutes  for  their 
library  duties. 

(8)  Report  of  the  Committee  on  University  Extension  (Dr.  A.  H.  Abbott). 

Teachers'  Courses: 

As  intimated  in  the  last  report,  the  Course  leading  to  the  Degree  in  Arts  wa£ 
offered  at  the  Summer  Session  of  1916  for  those  unable  to  attend  the  courses  as 
provided  in  the  regular  session.  By  an  arrangement  with  the  Department  of 
Education,  the  First  Year  subjects  were  given  with  the  Faculty  Entrance  classes 
conducted  by  the  Department  of  Education  during  the  summer.  Almost  without 
exception,  however,  the  candidates  had  Faculty  Entrance  standing  and  were  eligible 
therefore  to  enter  upon  Second  Year  work.  Three  subjects  of  the  Second  Year 
were  offered  at  the  session  of  1916,  namely,  English,  French  and  Physics.  The 
enrolment  was  31,  of  whom  22  were  women  and  9  men. 

The  Teachers'  Course  has  been  continued  throughout  the  winter  in  Teachers' 
Classes  and  Correspondence  work.  For  those  residing  in  Toronto,  classes  were 
formed  in  the  remaining  three  subjects  of  the  Second  Year,  Latin,  History  and 
Biology,  and  were  attended  throughout  the  winter  by  nineteen  teachers.  For  out 
of  town  students,  assistance  by  correspondence  was  arranged  in  the  same  subjects  as 
preparation  for  the  Summer  Session.  Bulletins  were  issued  monthly  and  regular 
work  returned  monthly,  fortnightly  or  weekly,  according  to  the  subject.  The  en- 
rolment in  the  Correspondence  Course  was  20  and  the  number  of  exercises  re- 
turned, 340. 

Summer  Session: 

The  attendance  in  the  Summer  Courses, including  those  given  in  co-operation 
with  the  Department  of  Education,  was  as  follows : 

Faculty  Entrance 97     French  Conversation 20 

Normal  Entrance 68    Pedagogy 20 

Household  Science 41     Second  Year 31 

Manual  Training 22    Commerce IS 

Vocal  Music 37  

Total 354 


24 

Compared  with  the  same  courses  given  last  year,  this  enrolment  shows  an  in- 
crease of  49.  Adding  the  courses  not  offered  in  previous  years  (French  Conversa- 
tion 20,  Pedagogy  20,  Second  Year  31),  the  total  increase  is  120. 

The  three  women's  residences,  Queen's  Hall,  Nos.  7,  9  and  4,  Knox  College  and 
Wycliffe  College,  were  open  for  the  accommodation  of  Summer  Session  students  and 
Departmental  Examiners.  There  were  365  in  residence  and  meals  were  served 
in  the  University  Dining  Hall. 

Three  evening  lectures,  an  excursion  to  Niagara  Falls,  to  the  Agricultural 
Farm,  Guelph,  and  a  visit  to  Ontario  Museum  were  arranged  by  way  of  entertain- 
ment for  the  students. 

Correspondence  Course : 

During  the  Session  1917-18,  102  students  took  advantage  of  the  assistance  by 
correspondence,  registered  as  follows : 

Normal  and  Faculty  Entrance 66 

Commerce 16 

Second  Year 20 

A  total  number  of  2,022  bulletins  were  issued  and  1,069  exercises  corrected  by 
the  instructors. 

Local  Lectures : 

Individual  and  series  of  lectures  were  arranged  by  the  Committee  during  the 
year  for  Canadian  Clubs,  Teachers'  Institutes  and  other  organizations  in  Toronto 
and  throughout  the  Province — the  former  23  and  the  latter  28.  As  an  outcome  of 
the  French  Course  at  Summer  Session,  a  series  of  ten  lectures  in  French  was 
arranged  for  teachers  residing  in  the  city.  The  attendance  at  these  weekly  lectures 
was  between  20  and  30. 


(9)   Statement  Kegarding  the  Biological  Museum  (Professor  Bensley). 

Considerable  progress  has  been  made  during  the  past  year  in  caring  for  the 
preserved  storage  material,  to  be  used  ultimately  for  museum  purposes,  and  in  the 
identification  and  arrangement  of  new  specimens  for  the  Eoyal  Ontario  Museum 
of  Zoology.  A  card  catalogue  of  the  latter  collection,  including  the  material  trans- 
ferred from  the  Biological  Museum,  is  in  course  of  preparation. 

The  following  donations  have  been  received :

Coleman)  . 

During  the  year  the  printing  of  explanatory  labels  for  the  more  conspicuous 
material  in  the  high  cases  has  been  practically  completed.  Two  new  wall  cases 
have  been  installed  for  the  reception  of  series  of  domestic  and  foreign  ornamental 
stones,  and  repolishing  of  many  of  the  sawn  specimens  has  resulted  in  a  great 
improvement. 

The  more  important  acquisitions  are  as  follows: —

(11)   Statement  Regarding  the  Paljsontological  Museum    (Professor 

W.  A.  Parks.) 

During  the  winter  a  second  section  of  the  series  of  wall  cases  devoted  to  Can- 
adian geology  and  palaeontology  has  been  installed  and  specimens  have  been  arranged 
therein  which  carry  the  series  to  the  close  of  the  Ordovician.  A  third  section  is 
under  construction;  when  placed  in  position  it  will  be  devoted  to  a  similar  series 
of  specimens  illustrating  the  Silurian  geology  and  palaeontology  of  Canada. 

Most  of  the  available  time  during  the  winter  has  been  devoted  to  the  prepara- 
tion of  the  Vertebrate  remains  collected  on  the  Red  Deer  river  some  years  ago  by 
Mr.  MacLean.  Several  bones  have  been  successfully  restored,  but  much  of  the 
collection  is  too  fragmentary  to  be  of  value  for  museum  display. 

The  Museum  has  now  reached  a  stage  of  development  with  respect  to  Inverte- 
brate fossils,  which  renders  the  acquisition  of  such  material  relatively  unimportant 
when  compared  with  the  great  necessity  for  additions  to  the  Vertebrate  collections. 
A  campaign  is  now  on  foot  to  procure  the  considerable  sums  of  money  necessary 
for  the  systematic  acquisition  of  Vertebrate  skeletons.  It  is  hoped  that  the  Gov- 
ernment, the  University  and  the  private  friends  of  the  museum  will  assist  in  further- 
ing this  much  to  be  desired  expansion. 

The  more  important  additions  to  the  collections  during  the  year  are  as  follows : 

By  Donation: 

Sawn  slab  with  Orthoceras,  China. — Miss  Sare,  Brackbill,  Eng. 
Jaw  of  Rhinoceros  megarhinus,  Pleistocene,  Texel. — Mr.  C.  T.  Currelley  .

(13)  Report  of  the  Medical  Research  Committee  for  the  Year  1916-17. 

The  disorganizing  effect  of  the  war  upon  the  work  carried  on  under  the  Medical 
Research  Fund  has  been  even  more  evident  in  1916-17  than  it  was  in  the  preceding- 
year.  Only  one  salaried  Fellow — Dr.  Detweiler — continues  to  act  under  the  Com- 
mittee. So  completely  has  all  scientific  effort  been  diverted  into  military  channels. 
that  although  it  was  proposed  to  appoint  a  second  Fellow,  who  should  undertake 
important  researches  upon  the  metabolism  of  dementia  precox,  it  has  not  hitherto 
been  found  possible  to  secure  .the  services  for  this  purpose  of  any  competently 
trained  investigator. 

The  work  of  Dr.  Detweiler  himself  has  been  largely  connected  with  a  subject 
whidh  is  of  the  utmost  importance  in  connection  with  the  medical  supervision  of 
the  expeditionary  force  in  Canada,  namely,  the  technique  of  the  Wassermaim  re- 
action in  syphilis.  He  has  succeeded  in  so  modifying  that  technique  fchai  it  will 
reveal,  in  the  great  majority  of  instances,  the  actual  cfTeel  of  various  forms  of 
treatment  upon  the  patient's  blood.  A  paper  has  been  published  in  the  -;  Canadian 
Medical  Association  Journal"  in  Marrh.  entitled.  "The  Treatmenl  of  Syphilis 
Tts  Effect  upon  the  Wassermann  Tesi  using  TTigh  Dilutions  of  Serum.  A  Pre- 
liminary "N"ote  v :  and  a  more  detailed    report  of  the  work   was  presented   fco  the 


28 

Canadian  Medical  Association  in  Montreal  in  June.  The  work  is  still  being  carried 
on  in  connection  with  this  research. 

Dr.  Detweiler  has  also,  with  the  assistance  of  Dr.  H.  B.  Maitland,  continued 
his  work  upon  the  alleged  elective  localization  of  streptococci.  A  comprehensive 
paper  dealing  with  this  research  was  prepared  and  accepted  for  publication  by  the 
Journal  of  Experimental  Medicine  and  is  now  in  the  printer's  hands. 

The  work  of  the  Out-Patient  Department,  under  the  direction  of  Dr.  Goldie, 
is  being  continued  along  the  lines  indicated  in  last  year's  report.  As  there  stated, 
Dr.  Goldie  carries  on  this  work  without  remuneration  from  the  Fund. 


(14)  Eepoht  of  the  Director  of  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory  (Dr.  J.  G. 

Fitzgerald.) 

'This  report  is  submitted  just  as  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory  is  entering  upon  its 
fourth  year  of  work. 

For  over  sixteen  months  past  the  laboratory  has  prepared  all  the  diphtheria 
and  tetanus  antitoxin,  meningitis  serum  and  Pasteur  treatments,  distributed  free  of 
charge  by  the  Provincial  Board  of  Health  in  Ontario.  During  the  last  two  months 
the  preparation  of  smallpox  vaccine,  which  is  also  distributed  free  by  the  Provincial 
Board  of  Health,  has  been  undertaken.  The  activities  of  the  Provincial  Board 
of  Health  are  already  bearing  fruit  as  evidenced  by  the  distinct  lowering  of  the 
death  rate  from  diphtheria.  This  is  due  to  the  fact  that  it  is  now  possible  in 
Ontario  to  obtain  antitoxin  readily  and  at  no  expense.  Many  lives  have  already 
been  saved,  but  even  more  will  be  accomplished  when  the  war  is  over  and  an  in- 
tensive campaign  can  be  undertaken  to  save  the  lives  of  children  who  die  of 
diphtheria  because  antitoxin  is  not  used  early  enough  and  in  sufficient  quantity. 

The  distribution  of  the  products  of  the  laboratory  in  Newfoundland,  Nova 
Scotia,  New  Brunswick,  Quebec,  Manitoba,  Saskatchewan,  Alberta,  and  British 
Columbia  has  also  continued.  At  least  one  other  Canadian  province  is  at  the 
present  time  contemplating  following  the  lead  of  Ontario  in  the  matter  of  free  dis- 
tribution of  public  health  biological  products. 

The  war  work  of  the  laboratory  has  increased  very  greatly.  The  Department 
of  Militia  and  Defence  has,  for  nearly  two  years,  been  supplied  with  all  the  tetanus 
antitoxin  required  by  the  Canadian  Army  Corps  in  France.  The  antitoxin  fur- 
nished by  this  Department  has  been  thoroughly  satisfactory,  and  has  been  supplied 
at  lower  price  than  tetanus  antitoxin  prepared  by  any  other  laboratory.  Diphtheria 
antitoxin  has  been  supplied  also  for  use  in  Canada  and  on  transports.  Meningitis 
serum  prepared  in  this  Department  has  been  used  with  much  success  in  Canada  and 
just  recently  (May  7th,  1917)  the  following  memorandum  was  sent  by  an  officer 
commanding  a  laboratory  unit  overseas,  to  the  D.  M.  S.  of  an  army,  respecting  the 
merit  of  the  meningitis  serum  prepared  by  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory. 

Herewith  report: — 

"  Tn  accordance  with  your  1590/17,  attached  herewith  report  on  anti-meningo- 
coccus  serum  (University  of  Toronto,  Lab.  Nos.  25  and  26,  dated  June  26th,  1916). 

"The  tests  made  have  been  confined  to  tests  of  agglutination  power  of  the 
scrum  and  have  been  carried  ou1  on  six  strains  of  meningococci  representing  both 
types  T  and  IT.  For  pin- poses  of  comparison  concurrent  tests  have  been  made  with 
the  following  sera:  Pasteur  Institute,  Lister  [nstitute  (G  26),  Bourroughs"  and 
Wellcome  (A.  1647  A.  D.). 


29 

"  In  every  case  the  University  of  Toronto  serum  has  shown  most  satisfactory 
agglutination,  far  superior  to  that  obtained  with  any  of  the  other  three  serums. 

"  In  so  far  as  agglutinating  power  of  a  serum  is  an  indication  of  its  therapeutic  . 
value,  it  would  appear  that  this  serum  attains  a  high  standard  of  excellence  and 
should  prove  more  efficient  than  the  majority  of  sera  at  present  in  use  in  France." 
Colonel  Gooderham's  splendid  gift  is  practically  ready  to  be  handed  over  to  the 
University.  The  handsome  and  completely  equipped  laboratories,  stables  and 
living  quarters  have  been  occupied  for  nearly  eight  months,  but  the  work  on  them 
has  only  just  been  completed.  This  plant,  by  those  who  are  most  competent  to 
judge,  is  said  to  be  as  complete  in  its  appointments  as  any  laboratory  of  like  size  in 
the  world.  The  farm  of  fifty  acres  is  this  year  being  partly  used  for  grazing  pur- 
poses, and  partly  for  the  production  of  vegetables,  etc.,  which  will  be  required  in 
part  for  laboratory  animals,  and  in  part,  also,  it  is  hoped,  for  the  University 
Dining  Hall.  A  farmer  has  been  engaged  and  it  is  expected  that  the  University 
may  produce  the  vegetables  which  heretofore  have  been  purchased  elsewhere.  This 
seems  particularly  desirable  at  the  present  time  when  there  is  such  a  shortage  of 
foodstuffs. 

It  has  been  possible  for  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory,  through  the  military  work 
of  the  director,  and  the  assistant  director,  Captain  E.  D.  Defries,  to  undertake  re- 
search work  in  connection  with  medical  problems  of  the  Second  Military  District. 
These  have  all  been  related  to  the  problems  of  communicable  diseases  amongst  men 
of  the  C.E.F.,  both  those  training  for  overseas  service  and  returned  men. 

Three  specific  problems  have  received  attention,  namely,  epidemic  cerebro- 
spinal meningitis,  lobar  pneumonia,  and  diphtheritic  infections  of  wounds.  In  all 
these  problems  it  has  been  possible  for  the  laboratory  to  render  service  to  the  men 
who  are  fighting  our  battles  overseas.  The  Director  of  the  Antitoxin  Laboratory 
is  also  acting  as  a  Sanitary  Officer  in  Military  District  No.  2  (D.  A.  D.  M.  S.  2 
Sanitation)  and  the  Assistant  Director  is  attached  to  the  staff  of  the  Laboratory 
Unit  Military  District  No.  2.  The  head  of  the  Department  of  Hygiene,  Lt.-Col. 
John  A.  Amyot,  is  now  Sanitary  Advisor  to  the  D.M.S.  Canadians,  London, 
England. 

The  chief  aim  of  the  laboratory  at  the  present  is,  to  in  every  way  facilitate 
military  endeavor.  All  research  work  other  than  that  bearing  on  the  war  has  been 
abandoned  until  the  war  is  over.  The  members  of  the  staff  of  the  laboratory  have 
been  most  faithful  in  their  work  and  to  them  the  thanks  of  the  Director  is  due. 
The  very  warmest  thanks  of  the  Director  are  also  hereby  tendered  to  Colonel  Albert 
Gooderham,  and  to  Major  J.  W.  S.  McCullough,  Chief  Officer  of  Health  of  Ontario. 

(15)   Keport  of  the  Director  of  the  Department  of  Social  Service 
(Dr.  Franklin  Johnson,  Jr.) 

In  brief  summary,  the  number  of  students  in  the  Department  has  increased 
in  spite  of  war  conditions,  the  field  work  has  been  further  systematized,  and  the 
activities  of  the  Department  still  further  broadened.  Both  the  Department  of 
Health  and  the  Board  of  Education  have  taken  action  requiring  their  visiting  staffs 
to  take  certain  courses  of  the  Department,  following  the  example  of  the  Playground 
Department  of  the  city. 

Courses  of  Instruction. 

For  the  coming  year  it  seems  advisable  to  institute  added  courses,  and  in 
particular  the  time  seems  ready  for  the  development  of  a  second  year  with  its 
appropriate  courses  and  work,  in  order  to  afford  advanced  instruction  for  those 
who  otherwise  would  be  compelled  to  seek  it  in  schools  of  the  United  States  offering 


30 

the  two  year  course.  It  is  not  expected  that  the  second  year  course  will  immediately 
attract  large  numbers,  and  it  will  require  a  certain  time  for  its  full  development.  A 
course  in  social  and  industrial  investigation  has  also  been  found  to  be  needed  and 
has  been  added  to  the  curriculum.  The  course  on  Social  Psychology  has  been 
conducted  by  Dr.  C.  M.  Hincks,  in  succession  to  Dr.  A.  H.  Abbott. 

Field  Work. 

Each  year  the  problem  of  field  work  requires  different  handling  and  arrange- 
ments, due  to  the  constantly  changing  situation  in  the  city  as  regards  social  work 
and  social  conditions.  The  field  work  has  been,  however,  still  further  developed 
and  systematized,  marking  an  advance  over  its  previous  satisfactory  condition. 
A  system  of  grading  students  in  their  field  work  has  been  attempted  this  year  and 
found  feasible,  which  is  an  advance  in  the  conduct  of  field  work  either  here  or  in 
other  institutions  of  social  instruction. 

Students. 

Notwithstanding  war  conditions  the  number  of  students  shows  an  increase  of 
thirteen  per  cent.,  the  registration  being  286  as  compared  with  252  for  the  previous 
year.  Three  men  were  enrolled  this  year  in  the  list  of  full  time  students,  all  of 
them  college  graduates.  The  list  of  students  also  shows  a  wider  distribution 
geographically.  What  was  said  in  the  last  report  as  to  the  quality  of  the  students 
applies  also  still  more  to  the  present  class. 

The  building  in  addition  to  its  departmental  uses  has  still  further  been  of 
service  in  linking  up  various  city  activities  which  are  availing  themselves  of  its 
facilities.  This  is  a  desirable  result.  Friends  of  the  Department  joining*  with 
the  Alumni  have  raised  the  necessary  funds  and  have  redecorated  and  completely 
equipped  one  of  the  rooms  of  the  building,  a  highly  appreciated  act. 

In  addition  to  the  work  involved  in  the  administration  of  the  Department 
and  care  of  its  students  and  in  addition  to  the  various  courses  of  instruction  con- 
ducted by  him,  the  Director  has  as  'before  been  kept  constantly  busy  in  the 
activities  of  many  organizations  and  forms  of  social  work.  This  is  not  only 
desirable  but  necessary,  for  the  sake  of  keeping  the  Department  in  touch  with  the 
broad  field  of  social  activities  in  the  city,  close  and  harmonious  connection  with 
which  the  Department  must  always  maintain  for  the  sake  of  its  own  work.  The 
volume  of  correspondence  not  only  from  different  parts  of  the  Dominion  but  also 
from  the  United  States  is  constantly  increasing. 

The  volume  of  work  handled  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Department  is  also 
markedly  increased  and  the  office  records  and  routine,  the  needs  of  the  students, 
the  care  of  the  growing  collection  of  reports  and  pamphlets  of  the  library,  together 
with  the  large  amount  of  varied  duties,  have  completely  filled  her  hands. 

The  Department  has  been  engaged  in  a  number  of  wider  activities.  There; 
has  been  an  increase  in  public  interest  in  its  work  and  an  increase  in  demand  for  it< 
advice  and  assistance  in  various  forms.  Among  these  may  be  mentioned  a  success- 
ful Vocational  'Institute  of  a  week's  duration  conducted  in  one  of  the  small  towns 
of  I  he  Province  by  way  of  demonstration  of  such  possibilities,  and  also  a  careful 
study  made  for  the  Social  Service  Commission  of  the  City  of  Toronto  of  the  dis- 
tribution of  charitable  relief  from  public  funds,  which  appears  in  the  annual  report 
of  that  organization.  The  collection  of  the  reports  and  publications  of  the  leading 
institutions  and  forms  of  social  work  throughout  the  continent  in  the  Departmental 
library  has  also  been  of  much  service  to  the  social  activities  of  the  city,  and  has 
led  to  increasing  public  use  of  the  departmental  library. 


31 


The  graduating  students  have  been  widely  distributed  in  the  fields  of  em- 
ployment which  they  have  entered  from  the  Department,  and  many  of  them  are 
engaged  in  government  and  public  service  as  well  as  in  private  organizations. 

(16)   Report  or  the  Physical  Director  (Dr.  J.  W.  Barton.) 

The  smaller  registration  in  the  number  of  men  students  naturally  affected 
interf acuity  athletics  to  some  extent.  In  spite  of  this,  however,  the  year  was  suc- 
cessful and  considerable  interest  was  displayed  in  the  contests  for  the  various 
interf  acuity  cups. 

In  rugby  nine  teams  competed  for  the  Mulock  Cup  and  produced  some  players 
of  first  team  calibre.     Senior  Medicals  won  from  University  College  in  the  finals. 

In  soccer  ten  teams  competed,  Dentals  again  winning  the  championship. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  athletics  it  was  found  impossible  to  hold 
a  track  -meet,  there  not  being  sufficient  entries  to  make  contests  in  the  majority 
of  the  events.     For  the  same  reason  the  Harrier  races  were  called  off. 

A  very  successful  tennis  tournament  was  held,  a  large  number  of  students 
taking  part.     The  Medical  team  won  the  Interfaculty  Championship. 

The  Jennings  Cup  hockey  series  was  one  of  the  best  in  recent  years.  Ten 
teams  entered  and  the  Faculty  of  Applied  Science  won  from  the  former  champions, 
the  Dentals,  in  a  closely  contested  game. 

Ten  teams  competed  in  the  Sifton  Cup  Basketball  series,  which  as  in  former 
years  was  played  on  the  floor  at  the  Central  Y.M.C.A.  Keen  interest'  was  main- 
tained throughout  the  whole  series,  which  resulted  in  the  triumph  of  Senior  Medicals 
over  Victoria,  who  had  been  for  two  years  holders  of  the  cup. 

Owing  to  the  bad  condition  of  the  pool,  swimming  was  badly  handicapped  and 
no  competition  took  place.  Neither  was  it  found  possible  to  hold  the  annual 
assault-at-arms,  because. the  student  element  which  ordinarily  supplied  these  con- 
tests was  conspicuously  absent  this  year. 

The  indoor  work  and  gymnasium  classes  were  even  less  attended  than  last  year, 
the  military  drill  again  largely  taking  the  place  of  that  form  of  physical  work. 

Until  the  Hart  House  is  completed  and  we  get  into  our  new  quarters,  athletic 
work  generally  will  suffer  and  we  can  hope  for  very  little  advancement. 

(17)  Report  of  the  Superintendent  of  the  Dining  Hall  (Miss  A'.  M. 

Ryley.) 

In  submitting  my  report  for  the  Academic  year  1916-1917,  1  am  glad  to  state 
that  the  year  has  been  as  successful  as  could  be  expected  with  the  decreased  attend- 
ance of  the  men  students.  Only  28,000  meals  less  than  last  year  were  served,  when 
women  students  as  well  as  men  students  were  admitted.  Altogether  over  1 50.000 
meals  were  served  during  the  year. 

Prices  have  risen  steadily,  but  this  increase  was  partly  offset  by  a  saving  of 
between  $1,500  and  $2,000  on  account  of  good  contracts  for  food  materials.  Male 
kitchen  help  was  scarce,  and  expensive,  receiving  double  the  salary  paid  three  years 
ago. 

One  other  factor  decreased  the  dining  hall  attendance  considerably.  At  Christ- 
mad  one  of  the  men's  residences  was  given  to  the  Government  for  soldiers  and  Un- 
caused a  decrease  of  about  thirty -three  men  at  each  meal.  As  it  is  alwaj  e 
cheaper  to  feed  a  larger  than  a  smaller  number  our  expenses  for  labor  have 
materially  increased  since  that  time. 

Altogether  I  consider  the  year,  when  the  war  is  taken  into  consideration,  to 
have  been  satisfactory  in  every  way.
